No. 1 C.K. Holliday

Engine No. 1, the C.K. Holliday, was named after the founder of what would eventually become the Santa Fe Railroad. This engine was one of the two in service at the opening of Disneyland.

The engine is a 4-4-0, built by Disney in 1955. It was modeled on the Lilly Belle, Walt's eighth scale engine of the Carolwood Pacific Railroad.
